A funeral ceremony for film director Tigran Keosayan is held at the Armenian Church on Olympic Avenue in Moscow. The Russian propagandist and husband of Margarita Simonyan died on the night of September 26.
This was reported by Russian media, "Komersant Ukrainian" reports.
The media report that it was impossible to look at Simonyan: she was sobbing loudly and behaving inappropriately. Periodically, she froze, looking at the ceiling, but sometimes she tried to break through to her husband’s coffin. Those present at the funeral had to restrain Margarita by force and calm her down with available means.
All the Kremlin’s beau monde came to Tigran Keosayan’s funeral. Philip Kirkorov, Fyodor Dobronravov, Lolita, Larisa Dolina, Tina Kandelaki, Konstantin Ernst, Maria Zakharova, Vladimir Mashkov, Nikolai Tsiskaridze, and Vladimir Medinsky were spotted near the church. The propagandist was so important to the Kremlin that even dictator Vladimir Putin sent a wreath.
